About This Venue
The Fond du Lac Yacht Club is a private, member-driven organization on Lake Winnebago's shores dedicated to promoting boating, yacht racing, and water recreation since its founding in 1920.
This exclusive club fosters a vibrant community of boaters through year-round social events and educational programs, including DNN Boater Safety Courses, youth sailing initiatives, and seasonal activities ranging from summer "Rock the Dock" parties to winter ice celebrations. Members enjoy a full calendar of boating excursions, community parades, and themed gatherings like Green Bay Packer parties and holiday celebrations, with numerous volunteer committees offering ways to get involved in Entertainment, Docks, Membership, and Grounds.
Membership is by invitation only, requiring sponsorship from two current members, making it a selective community for serious boaters and water enthusiasts in the Fond du Lac area. The club emphasizes both recreational enjoyment and public boating safety education, creating an environment where members can pursue everything from competitive racing to casual cruising on one of Wisconsin's largest lakes.
